The Hamburg Sud tractor-trailer rolled onto its side on Route 42 southbound in between the overpasses for I-295, blocking all four lanes of traffic. Crews laid down sand to cleanup a subsequent fuel spill.

That wasn't the first traffic nightmare caused by a big rig Friday morning. A tractor-trailer broke down diagonally across Harbison Avenue where it intersects the Roosevelt Boulevard (Route 1) in Northeast Philadelphia around 8:30 a.m.

The blue big rig came to a stop along Harbison where it intersects with the median between the different directions of the Boulevard.

As Sky Force10 hovered overhead it appeared the big rig, which was carrying 14 tons of cargo, was making a left from the southbound Boulevard onto Harbison when it stopped.
